And before anyone decries Alex for subjecting me to this, I actually requested this movie, so I have only myself to blame.

I do like the cover art.

I actually somewhat liked it, in a "this movie is complete shit" kinda way.

My fiancee came in laughing while I was watching it because of the incredible overacting by one of the hillbillies while he's trying to act scared. He's going "Buh-buh-buh but wh-wh-what w-w-w-as that!" or something similar and it's just absolutely ridiculous and hysterical.

But yeah, it's pretty bad. Great title, though.

"J-J-J-J-J-J-J-Jeb!" Yeah, that guy sucks. Not as much as the guy playing Bubba, though. For the first half of the movie, I couldn't figure out if his partner was named "Cuda," as in barracuda, or "Cooter," as in the mechanic from Dukes of Hazzard. Turns out it was the later, and the only reason I figured that out was because I saw his name tag. Fuck that guy playing Bubba.

And thanks, Trejo. Your support is appreciated.

At first, after reading the (admittedly hackneyed) premise that perhaps you were being too hard on this film. It kind of sounded like an homage to Humanoids from the Deep, which we all know & love. But then I got to the part where you mention the "mating dance" with the pink tutu, and I'll shut the fuck up now. Chris has the right to say, in his best Capt. Quint, "Don't you tell me my business again,boy. Redneck? Mutant? Bit throgh that piano wore like that?"

It can't be worse than FROGGG! or AQUANOIDS. It just can't be.

I haven't seen either of those, but I have a feeling that this movie is worse. A part of me just knows it.

And Iggy, feel free to tell me I'm talking out of my ass anytime you want. I'm just winging it here, and I'm definitely not an expert.
